Canvas Mayor Square, Dublin

For the price we paid, we were pleasantly surprised. The room was typically student accommodation with an ensuite toilet and shower. It was well presented and clean. The double bed was really comfortable. An ideal location for exploring the city and the train station was within a short walk. Would highly recommend.

I stayed here for 2 nights basically like a hotel. I rate this place, no one stayed in my accommodation either so it was quiet. First thing you should know it's quite difficult to find you need to basically peer into the turn style and you'll see the sign for the student accommodation, then press the buzzer for the student accomm. It does have typical student accommodation issues but my room was clean and the bed was a little small for two people. It was cheap and had no facilities but the bed was comfy enough. Reception was closed when we tried to check out and we were given no instructions about check out. If you come here for somewhere to just lay your head it's perfect but you need student expectations. Don't come here if you have been spoiled by staying in a nice hotel. This place is slightly worse I suppose than a Travelodge or holiday inn but it's chill if your a student. Only mirror is in the bathroom which gets fogged up if you shower so a bit of a pain getting ready. Starting just before 5am there was non stop seagulls. The toilet made a ton of noise when you flushed as well. The blinds don't block much light at all but not like the sun is out in Dublin lol. I'm about to graduate from a different uni, but as a student this place is alright to live in, if this is a cheaper option then I think it's decent. Most student accommodation is expensive and mid. Try find somewhere else if you can but not the end of the world if you end up here the locations alright. No real facilities tho. Location is decent your about a 25 minute walk from most things.
